آنکھ سے دُور سہی، دل کے قریں رہنے دے
میری ہر سانس میں تو خود کو مکیں رہنے دے
میں کہ اک عکس ہوں گمنام سا پس منظر ہوں
کب کہاں کیسے کسی طور کہیں رہنے دے
اک نظر مجھ پہ مرے ماہِ منیر ایسی ہو
کب طلب میں نے کیا زر یا نگیں، رہنے دے
میں ہوں اس قافلۂ عشق سے بچھڑا راہی
میرا کب ٹھور ٹھکانہ ہے کہیں، رہنے دے
تجھ سے منسوب ہوئی، تجھ سے ہی منسوب رہوں
غیر کے آگے جھکے گی یہ جبیں، رہنے دے
دل میں یا آنکھ میں یا دستِ حنائی میں فضاؔ
تیری مرضی ہے جہاں چاہے، وہیں رہنے دے
Diseases are recognized as one of the major restrictions to sustainable animal production which can cause significant economic loss in aquaculture. Even though there are various chemotherapeutic agents such as antibiotics and disinfectants in practice from centuries. Antibiotics have the potential to cause unwanted side effects as well as microbes get resistant against them. Now there is also a lot of research going to see the potential of natural products against pathogens. Tradescantia pallida purpurea plant has various bioactive compounds such as alkaloids, flavonoids, tannis and phenolic compounds Objective: The present study was conducted to testefficacy of Tradescantia pallida purpurea in chloroform extract against fish pathogens and also a comparison in methods (well diffusion and disc diffusion) was made Methods: Four fish pathogens (NP1, NP4, SCC4 and TS1) were isolated after morphological and biochemical tests. Erythromycin was used as control. 10 µg/ml chloroform leaf extract was used by well diffusion and disc diffusion Results: It was noticed that well-diffusion assay was better to inhibit growth of fish isolates as compared to disc diffusion method. It was noticed that Tradescantia pallidahaspotential to inhibit growth of pathogens. Conclusions: So, there is a need to plan a comprehensive study to recommend the maximum dose that is helpful to control fish pathogens.
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is a phenomenon that has received considerable attention not only from academicians & from researchers but also from corporate sector since it has multidimensional effects on their performance. It is imperative to note that companies may use CSR as a tool to manage many types of stakeholders, including stakeholders outside of the organization and outcomes that go beyond financial result. This notion will lead the companies towards new era mostly stated as sustainability, where companies act responsibly towards social, environmental and societal issues at large. The current study seeks to model and empirically test the relationship amongst determinants and outcomes (i.e. psychological and performance) of corporate social responsibility, specifically this study probe into relationship between ethical leadership, corporate social responsibility, trust and performance variables (organizational citizenship behavior, task performance behavior & counterproductive work behavior). Furthermore, this study also examines the role of ethical climate between the relationships of ethical leadership and CSR (ethical climate acts as a moderator). The current study has used mix methods approach i.e. quantitative and qualitative research design. The population of the study is scheduled and listed commercial banks in Pakistan. The study has used both simple random probability sampling technique and purposive sampling technique. Data was collected using mix methods from the sampled individuals for quantitative analysis. 500 responses were received back from the employees of banks from major cities (i.e. Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi and Peshawar) however, only 420 were useable. Fifteen top executives were interviewed out of the thirty-five listed commercial banks for qualitative analysis in respect to sustainable development. Data was analyzed using Partial Least Square Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). Furthermore, necessary tests were conducted using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23. Findings indicate that ethical leadership has positive impact on CSR and significantly contributes towards defining the underlying processes of CSR. Results confirmed that ethical climate acts as a moderator between the relationship of ethical leadership & CSR. The CSR activities are project based and identified through an internal mechanism sometimes based on need and philanthropic prospective. The integrated conceptual framework of the current study will be helpful in decision making as to determine the impact of CSR on performance variables. Similarly, the current study will help corporate sector in devising strategies and policies of sustainability for competitive advantages. The researcher contends that this is one of the few studies in Pakistani context to understand the underlying processes linking ethical leadership with CSR along with the performance outcomes and ethical climate as moderator. This will certainly provide a comprehensive overview of CSR and sustainability prospective in Pakistan.
